The slow death of the Dead Sea

The Dead Sea is experiencing a significant decline in water levels, dropping by a meter each year.

The shrinking sea affects local tourism, with infrastructure needing constant adaptation. Proposed solutions include channeling water from the Mediterranean or using natural sources, but no action has been taken yet.
